Nektar SE25 mini MIDI keyboard introduction
Nektar Technology Inc.
From the manufacturer
SE25: MINI MIDI CONTROLLER WITH NEKTAR DAW INTEGRATION
The Nektar SE25 is designed to be ultimately mobile: Our most compact MIDI keyboard controller is about as wide as a laptop, fits in almost any backpack and gives you all you need to create music on the move. With 25 mini keys (that actually play well), six control buttons and Nektar DAW Integration the SE25 is way more powerful than it might seem at first glance. And we haven’t even mentioned our unique Part 2 feature yet…

THE KEYBOARDThese keys are ready for action: The SE25 features our newly developed velocity-sensitive mini-keybed. Despite these keys’ miniscule dimensions, you can play them expressively with a defined and firm feel. What’s more, a choice of three different velocity curves allows you to adjust the keyboard response to your playing style. |
UNIQUE "PART TWO" FEATUREPlay in ways not even possible on much larger keyboards: Simply press the dedicated Part “2” button to momentarily shift the octave, add a harmony layer while you play or switch to a different MIDI channel altogether: A fun performance feature! Part Two allows you to toggle back-and-forth between two different keyboard configurations in realtime. The “2” button is assignable to Octave, MIDI Channel, Transpose, Layer and Latch or a combination of these features. |
PERFORMANCE CONTROLSAll you need for dynamic performances: We found a way to shrink the controls for Pitch Bend, Modulation and Sustain to size and put them right at your fingertips. Six buttons to the left of the keyboard are pre-assigned to octave shift, transpose and sustain. Don’t need transpose? Then assign the transpose buttons to Pitch Bend, MIDI Volume, Pan, Track* or even Patch change (requires Nektar DAW integration). And the “S” Sustain button can alternatively be used to control modulation. |
- Works with any MIDI software
- Ultra-compact
- Rugged enclosure
- Nektar DAW Integration
- Supports Windows, Mac OS, Linux (Ubuntu) and Apple iOS (requires camera connection kit)

NEKTAR DAW INTEGRATIONControl your DAW: Of course, the SE25 is compatible with any MIDI software right out of the box. But Nektar controllers can do more if you install our custom NEKTAR DAW Integration software. Control DAW transport functions and track selection directly from the SE25 and give your trackpad or mouse a break: Simply press the Play and Rewind buttons simultaneously to enter transport mode and control the DAW from your SE25! |
DAW'S SUPPORTEDNektar DAW Integration for SE25 currently supports: Bitwig, Cubase, Garageband, Logic, Nuendo, Digital Performer, FL Studio, Mixcraft, Reason, Reaper, Sonar and Studio One. (In order to take advantage of Nektar DAW Integration, you need to register your SE25 and download the integration files from your Nektar user account.) |
BITWIG 8-TRACK DAW INCLUDEDProduce and perform like a pro from day one with the included Bitwig 8-Track DAW. It comes with over 50 software instruments and effects for use on up to 8 audio or MIDI project tracks, and you can use any 3rd party VST plug-ins you might own, too. What's more, the included ‘Bitwig Essentials Package’ features a highly versatile handpicked selection of loops, clips and samples, to make it even easier to get you started. With Nektar DAW Integration you can control track selection and transport controls directly from the SE25. If you are just starting out, you will find it’s the perfect way to take your first steps in the world of digital music creation. And if you’re already familiar with using computer software, you’ll be amazed at what this combination has to offer! |

Amazing MIDI keyboard for music makers that happens to be portable
Super thin, light, portable, responsive, and a great value. It was literally plug in and play with Logic Pro. I bought this for making music on the go, but honestly I love it so much that it has almost made my full size keys Roland midi keyboard obsolete, just because of how small and convenient it is. I researched a TON of other mini sized keyboards, and this is the smallest footprint by far. I love that I can carry it around and throw it into my backpack or just move around my apartment freely. Also, I don’t have to be super careful with it since it’s only $50. I wish it had a mod/pitch bend wheel, instead of buttons. I still rate it 5/5 just for its portability, ease of use, and value.

It’s a great purchase for the price, this is the best you’ll get at a low price range. It works great the only problem is it arrived with a damaged key, the big C key is not as firm as the others and sags down.
